Liguria, The Cookbook
My personal love letter to Liguria, the Italian Riviera – the home of pesto, focaccia, and the Cinque Terre. This land is also the source of a rich local cuisine, one that is vegetable-forward, inherently waste-conscious, and full of regional delights. From local twists on Italian favorites like fritto misto, risotto, and ravioli to lesser-known Ligurian specialties such as corzetti, this cookbook offers readers a personal journey into the heart of the foods of this timeless, yet ever-evolving region.
